Hi ! How is an infocube created in DP? How are the values populated ?

Hi !
Thank you so much for the reply!
Could you please explain:
1) How is an infocube created in Demand Planning?
2) How to store values for Characteristics and Key figures ?

Hi,
Basically Info cube is created in to APO-BW..If you want to store the data of planning area in to Info Cube..then you have to create whole data extraction process..see the steps below..
1. Create data source under the planning area. T-code: /n/sapapo/msdp_admin..Click on planning area. Go to extras select data extraction tool. Create data source, test it & replicate it in to APO BW..
2. Go to RSA1..create Infopackage under the data source & enter appropriate planninf version in selection criteria.
3. Create Application component in Info Source modelling..Then create info source under the application by coping data source..so automatcially all the info objects will come in to info source.
4. Create transformtion between IS & DS.
5. Create Info Area in infoprovider modelling..Create Info cube, in that you need to add all the info objects (Char, Key figure, Time Char) same like info source.
6. Create transformation between IC & IS.
7. Create data transfer process.
8. Now you can able to extract data from planning area.

May i know how to create Transactional Infocube, Data from cube to cube

Hi All,
I need to create a Transactional Infocube. Can anyone help me how to create that. and how it differs from Basic cube while creating Transactional Infocube.
My other question is how to load data from one cube to another.( is it possible from basic to transactional )
It's urgent.
regards,
Ali

Hi Ali,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sem60ep1/helpdata/en/7b/a90e78d10311d4b3490050dadfb23f/frameset.htm
Transactional InfoCubes differ from Basic InfoCubes in their ability to support parallel write accesses. Basic InfoCubes are technically optimized for read accesses .
Use
Transactional InfoCubes are used in connection with the entry of planning data. See also Overview of Planning with BW-BPS. The data from this kind of InfoCube is accessed transactionally, meaning data is written to the InfoCube (possibly by several users at the same time). Basic InfoCubes are not suitable for this. You should use Basic InfoCubes for read-only access (for example, when reading reference data).
transactional infocubes can be filled with data using two different methods: using the transaction of BW-BPS to enter planning data and using BW staging, whereas planning data then cannot be loaded simultaneously.
Anyway, the data from this kind of infocube is accessed transactionally, meaning data is written to the infocube (possibly by several users at the same time); basic infocubes are not suitable for this. I think this is the only proper use of this type of cube...
We have an option to switch the Tranasaction cube such as "Loding allowed and Planning not allowed" and "Planning allowed and loading not allowed".

How to create more $INFOCUBE

Hi,
I hava created some cubes, they are all in the $INFOCUBE.
how to create another $INFOCUBE.
Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy,
we can create only one cube with same technical name in one BW system, may be you are talking about $INFOCUBE folder which contains infocubes, if my assumption is correct, if you want to create one more infocube under $INFOCUBE folder, you need to create infocube in BW system with RSA1 Transaction code, under infoarea (new or existing one) -> right click Create Infocube.

How to create SAVE button in Workbook using BI IP Functionality

Hi All,
I have Real-time Infocube (ZCUBSDID) with me. Planning has been done on the cube using BI-IP (like Aggregation level, filter, planning function and planning sequence are present there).
As an Input i have everything in Quality system like I can access query in Bex Anlyzer (Input Ready Query) and also i have workbook associated with the query. SAVE button is also present on workbook which is giving result based on fiscal year and version.
Now my task is to create workbook on Development system with the same functionality as Quality System.
I have same Query available on DEV system also. I created new Workbook but SAVE button is not available in my workbook.
Can anyone suggest how to create SAVE button in my new workbook.
I am new in IP side so please let me know if i can get any help from workbook which is already present in Quality system.
Which type of analysis i should do to come out with solution.....otherwise let me know step by step procedure to create SAVE button on workbook using BI-IP functionality.
It will be great help. My advance thanks goes to you people.
Thanks,

What is Infoset and How to create

HI Experts
Can any one please explain me what is the purpose of INFOSET in BW
and how to create a info Set between A Info Object and Cube
Thanks

Dear bw user,
Check the below link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/ed/084e3ce0f9fe3fe10000000a114084/content.htm
Purpose is,
1.To join required data from basic InfoProviders
2.This allows building a relational BI data model with unified views for reporting (seeveral InfoProviders,but only one view). Therefore, we recommend keeping data in smaller, basic InfoProviders that can be flexibly joined for reporting purposes.
3. To allow BEx Reporting on a DataStore object without turning the BEx Reporting indicator on
4. To evaluate time dependencies (for example, join time dependent master data InfoObjects)
5. To be able to create self joins and left outer joins
Creatind in simple steps
Infoset is a Virtual Infoprovider.
Click on InfoProvider under modeling in RSA1 > Select InfoArea > right click Create Infoset > give name and description.
Select the ODS / Master Data Object or more than one ODS and maintain the link.
Infoset works on Join operation.
you can include Infocube if it is BI 7.

Aslo see this link contents
Creating InfoSets
Prerequisites
Make sure that the objects for which you want to define the InfoSet are active. Create any required InfoObjects that do not
exist already and activate them.
Instead of creating a new InfoSet, you can transfer one of the InfoSets that are delivered with SAP Business Content.
Procedure
1. You are in the InfoProvider tree of the Modeling function area in the Administrator Workbench.
Choose the Create InfoSet function from the context menu (right mouse-click) of the InfoArea in which you want to create an
InfoSet. You get to the Create InfoSet dialog box.
2. Type in the following information for your new InfoSet:
¡ technical name
¡ long description
¡ short description
3. In the Start with InfoProvider section, you determine which InfoProvider you want to use to start defining the InfoSet.
¡ Select one of the object types that the system offers you:
ODS Object
InfoObject
Choose an object.
If you want to choose an InfoObject, it must be a characteristic with master data. The system provides you with the
corresponding input help.
4. Choose Continue. You get to the Change InfoSet screen. For more information on editing InfoSets see Editing InfoSets.
When you create an InfoSet, the system generates a corresponding entry for this InfoSet in the subtree of the InfoArea. The
following functions are available from the context menu (right mouse-click) of this entry:
Change
Delete
Object overview
Editing InfoSets
Prerequisites
Before you can get to the screen where you edit InfoSets, the following prerequisites have to be met:
You have created a new InfoSet.
You have selected the Change function from the context menu of an InfoSet entry in the InfoProvider tree of the Modeling
function area in the Administrator Workbench.
You have called the InfoSet Builder transaction, and selected the Change function. You can find additional information
under Additional Functions in the InfoSet Builder .
Procedure
1. You are in the Change InfoSet screen.
Choose a layout for the InfoProvider tree:
InfoArea
InfoProviders Used
All ODS Objects
All InfoObjects
For more information on the screen layout, particularly the layout of the InfoProvider tree, see Screen Layout: Changing
InfoSets.
2. Use the function Where-Used List via AWB to determine which BW objects use the InfoSet that you have selected. You get to
the Administrator Workbench: Where-Used List screen. You are able to work out what would happen in the system if you made
changes to the InfoSet. This helps you to decide whether or not it is sensible to make these changes at this particular point
in time.
3. You define the InfoSet by inserting one or more InfoProviders into the join.
There are several ways of inserting an InfoProvider into the join control:
¡ From the InfoProvider tree:
§ In the InfoProvider tree, double-click on the entry that corresponds to the InfoProvider that you want to add to the join
control.
§ Use the drag-and-drop function to move the InfoProvider into position.
¡ Choose the Add InfoProvider function, to add a particular ODS object or a particular InfoObject independently of the
current layout of the InfoProvider tree. You get to the dialog box of the same name. Enter the data that the system asks you
for.
If you know the technical name of the InfoProvider that you want to add, this method is quicker than switching the layout of
the InfoProvider tree.
When this function is complete, the InfoProvider that you selected is displayed in the join control. For more information on
the structure of the join control, see Join Control.
4. Define the join conditions. For more information see Defining Join Conditions.
5. You can get general information such as object version, date created and date changed via Goto ® Global Settings. You can
also set the indicator Most recent Reporting for InfoObjects from here. You can find additional information under Most recent
Reporting for InfoObjects.
6. Via the button Documents, which appears on the pushbutton bar, you can access document editing for this InfoSet.
7. You can use Check to check the correctness of the InfoSet definition. The log display is shown in the screen area under
the join control.
8. Save the InfoSet. The log display is shown in the screen area under the join control.
9. Activate the InfoSet. After activation, the system executes the checks. The result of the activation is displayed in the
log in the screen area under the join control.
Additional Functions in the InfoSet Builder
You can also use transaction RSISET to call up the InfoSet Builder when you want to edit an InfoSet. Select the InfoSet that
you want to edit. Value help is available for this. Additional functions are also available to help you edit and manage your
InfoSet.
Compare
You use this function from the main menu to check if the InfoProviders used in the InfoSet have been changed and the InfoSet
needs to be adjusted as a result. For more information, see Matching InfoSets.
Jump to object maintenance
You use the InfoObjects and ODS Objects functions to jump to the maintenance screen for the InfoProviders included in the
InfoSet definition.
Info functions
There are various info functions on the status of the InfoSets:
The Object Catalog Entry
The log display for the save, activate, and delete runs of the InfoSet.
Display in tree
You use this function to display in a tree structure all the properties of the A version (active) of the selected InfoSet.
Header data
InfoProvider and its fields
On condition
Wherecondition
The display is empty, if no active version is available.
Version comparison
You use this function to compare the following InfoSet versions:
The active (A version) and modified (M version) versions of an InfoSet
The active (A version) and content (D version) versions of an InfoSet
The modified (M version) and content (D version) versions of an InfoSet
The Display InfoSet screen appears. Depending on which option you choose, the system displays either all of the differences
between the two versions of the selected InfoSet or all of the properties of both versions in a tree structure.
Transport connection using AWB
You use this function to transport an InfoSet into another system.
The Administrator Workbench: Transport Connection screen appears.
The system has already collected all the BW objects that are needed to guarantee the consistency of the target system.
InfoSet data display
You use this function to access the data target browser. If you have already loaded data into the InfoProviders included in
the InfoSet, you can display this data.
Delete
You use this function to delete an existing InfoSet.
Copy
You use this function to copy an existing InfoSet and, if necessary, edit it further.
Show/hide technical names
You can use this function to show alias names for fields. These alias names are necessary in InfoSets, for example to be able
to map self joins. Field alias names start with F, followed by a five-digit number.
Defining Join Conditions
Use
A join condition determines the combination of records from the individual objects that are included in the resulting set.
Before an InfoSet can be activated, the join conditions have to be defined in such a way (as equal join condition) that all
the available objects are connected to one another either directly or indirectly.
Usually, however, only rows containing a common InfoObject or rows containing InfoObjects that share the same basic
characteristic are connected to one another.
Connect tables T1 and T2 using a join and set as a join condition that the F1 field from T1 must have the same value as F2
from T2. For a record from table T1, the system determines all records from T2 for which F2(T2) = F1(T1) is true. In
principle, as many records from T2 can be found as required. If one or more records are found, the corresponding number of
records is included in the result set, whereby the fields from T1 contain the values from the record from T1 under
consideration, and the fields from T2 contain the values of the records found from T2.
Procedure
There are various ways of defining join conditions:
Using a mouse-click
Position the cursor over a row in an InfoObject. Press the left mouse-button and, keeping the left mouse-button pressed down,
trace a line between this row and a row in another object. Providing that the join condition between the two rows that you
have indicated is a valid join condition, the system confirms the join condition by displaying a connecting line between the
two rows.
Using the Link Maintenance pushbutton
You get to the Link Maintenance dialog box.
In a tree structure on the left-hand side of the screen, all of the InfoProviders that are already included in the join are
displayed along with their fields or attributes. If you double-click on one of these fields or attributes, the system
displays on the right-hand side of the screen all of the fields or attributes with which you are able to create a join
condition.
In the Selection column, set one or more of the indicators for the fields or attributes for which you want to create a join
condition. The system generates valid join conditions between the fields or attributes that you specify.
You use the Delete Links pushbutton to undo all of the join conditions.
You use the All Characteristics or the Basic Characteristics Only pushbutton to choose between the corresponding display
variants.
We recommend that you use the Basic Characteristics Only option. The All Characteristics setting displays all of the
technical options involved in a join. If you are not able to find a join condition on the basic characteristic level, then
the All Characteristics setting is useful, but this is an exceptional case.
When you have finished making your settings, click on the Continue icon.
We recommend this method, because the system searches for all the possible join conditions for any field or attribute that
the user specifies, ensuring that the join conditions are defined without errors.
Using the Context Menu Left Outer Join Inner Join
Usually inner-join operators connect all the objects in a join to one another. You can also connect each object with any of
the many other objects by using a left outer join operator.
You can find additional information about usage and special features under Left Outer Join.
If you want to use a left-outer join operator to connect an object, select the object and choose the corresponding function
from the context menu.
The system displays all of the valid join conditions that originate from this object. The connecting lines that represent
these join conditions are labeled as Left Outer Join . InfoProviders, on which a left outer join condition is affixed, are
differentiated by color from the InfoProviders that are connected using an inner join operator.
If you used a left outer join operator to connect two objects, you have to make sure that all on conditions are linked except
for these two objects with the formulation of join conditions.
Note that you cannot add an object, which you have already connected by using the left outer join operator, to another
object.
If you want to use an inner-join operator instead of the left-outer join operator, select the object that you want to
connect, and choose the Inner Join option from the context menu. Again the system displays all the valid join conditions that
originate from this object, and labels the connecting lines accordingly.
Result
Once the join conditions have been defined in such a way as to connect all the available objects to one another, either
directly or indirectly, the InfoSet is ready to be activated.
You click on the Check pushbutton in the pushbutton toolbar to find out if these preconditions for the activation have been
met.
For objects that are joined by a left-outer join operator, there is one extra condition that has to be met, namely that all
the other objects have to be connected to one another either directly or indirectly.

How to create process variant in process chain

What is a process variant? i try to add Infocube compression to the fi process chain. To accomplish this task, i have to create process variant. please tell me the step by step process how to create process variant and successfully add the compression to the process chain. Can i do it directly in production? Thanks to SDN community that i can count on.

Hi Rafi,
<b>Process variants</b>
The process variant is the name of the process Within the process chain context, it displays the configuration of a process of a particular type set at the time of definition. A variant is only consistently defined together with the process type. A process can have various variants. With the load process for example, the name of the InfoPackage is the name of the process variant.
The user defines the process variant at the time when the process is scheduled. With some process types, the variants are determined internally and are stored as GUIDs.

How To Make Infocube Visible in Query Designer?

hello,
i'm using BIW 3.10, i've just created infocube and succesfully populated it with data. I went through all the process from datasource (from R/3 masterdata), infosource, infoobjects and so on, until i get to browse the content of the infocube using the "Manage Data Targets" screen of rsa1->modeling->InfoProvider->Manage. Now my problem is how do i make the infocube visible in the Query Designer?
thanks,
sid

hi sid,
you have open bex analyzer, and click 'query', in next screen 'sap bex : select query', click 'new' (icon blank page), and click 'infoarea' in left side, you will see the infocube under your infoarea. hope this helps.
for new infocube, when there is no query created from this infocube, the infocube will invisible, since the screen is to select existing queries.

How to create generic data source in R/3

hi experts !
i m a beginner in BIW.
i wan to create a generic data source in my R/3 system. since there exists a Z table which i want to use in designing an infocube in my BI system. please someone help me how should i begin with doing it ?
thanx in advance
akanksha

Akanksha,
Here am providing you with a scenario when we go for Generic Datasource and also the steps to create a Generioc DS:
We can create datasource based on View, Table, SAP Query or ABAP Query, and Function Module.
Scenario for Generic Datasource.
      One of the Manager who using reports wanted to have the report which will him the list customers and sales document numbers created by them.
     In this case we can use of VIEW where kna1 and vbak tables were combined in the View definition or else u can say that ABAPer had given the required view.
How to create the generic Datasource.
      Goto RS02, select the Transactional Data, it will takes us to the next screen, where we need to give application component name say SD (01), then give the name of the Datasource that u wanted, select view and give the view name. Below that field we need give 3 descriptions. Then save and activate the datasource.
    Go back to the RSA6 screen transport it to BW system. Replicate the DS.
Hope it helps..

How to create queries on multiproviders& what are steps to be taken.

Hi all,
How to create queries on multiproviders& what are steps has to be take care.
Thanks,
cheta.

Hi,
Following scenario for sample for slow moving items for multiproviders.
Slow Moving Item Scenario
You want to define a query that displays all products that have been purchased only
infrequently or not at all. In other words, the query is also display characteristic values for
which no transaction data or only low values exist for the selected period.
Procedure
In the Administrator Workbench;
1. Create a MultiProvider consisting of a revenue InfoCube, containing the InfoObject
Material (0MATERIAL), and the InfoObject 0MATERIAL. The InfoObject must be set as
an InfoProvider in InfoObject maintenance. In other words, you need to have assigned
the InfoObject to an InfoArea. (also refer to Tab Page: Master Data/texts [Ext.]).
In the BEx Analyzer:
2. Select your MultiProvider in the Query Designer.
3. Define a query that contains the InfoObject 1ROWCOUNT in the columns.
The InfoObject 1ROWCOUNT is contained in all flat InfoProviders, that is, in all
InfoObjects and ODS objects. It counts the number of records in the InfoProvider.
In this scenario, you can see from the row number display whether or nor values
from the InfoProvider InfoObject are really displayed.
4. Save the query and execute it. All values are now displayed, including those for materials
that were not purchased.
If you filter by time (0CALYEAR, for example), values from the InfoProvider
InfoObjects are not displayed since 0CALYEAR is not an attribute of
0MATERIAL. You can see this from the absence of values in the 1ROWCOUNT
column in the query. If you want to restrict by time, you need to proceed as
follows:
Constant Selection for the InfoObject
You need to set the constant selection for the 1ROWCOUNT key figure in order to be able to
set a filter by time in this query.
1. In the Query Designer, via the context menu for 1ROWCOUNT, choose Edit.
2. On the left hand half of the screen, under the data package dimension, select the
characteristic InfoProvider (0INFOPROV) and drag it into the right-hand screen area.
3. From the context menu for the InfoProvider, choose Restrict, and restrict across the
InfoProvider InfoObject.
4. Also from the context menu for the InfoProvider, choose the function Constant Selection.
5. Save the query and execute it. You can now also set a filter for a time characteristic, the
materials display remains as it was.
Displaying Slow Moving Items
If you want to display a list of slow moving items, excluding products that are selling well, you
need to proceed as follows:
1. In the Query Designer, via the context menu for 1ROWCOUNT, choose Edit.
2. Via the context menu for InfoProvider, choose the function Display Empty Values. Also
select Constant Selection.
3. Save the query and execute it. The result is that the system displays the materials for
which there was no revenue.
Displaying Products with Small Revenues
If you want to display a list of products that have not been sold or have only been selling
badly, you need to proceed as follows:
1. Set constant selection as described above, but do not select the display empty values
function.
2. In the Query Designer, define a condition for the 0MATERIAL InfoObject. Specify a value
that is to be the upper limit for a bad sale.
3. Save the query and execute it. The result is that the system displays all materials that
have not been sold or have been selling badly.
